LRAD® Corporation Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Company Anticipates Improved Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Accelerated Growth in Fiscal 2016
SAN DIEGO, CA – August 6, 2015 - LRAD Corporation (NASDAQ: LRAD), the world’s leading provider of Long Range Acoustic Device® and advanced mass notification systems, today reported financial results for the fiscal third quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2015.
Fiscal Third Quarter 2015 Financial Summary
|
● |
Revenues: Fiscal third quarter 2015 revenues totaled $3.5 million, $4.5 million less than the $8.0 million reported in the fiscal third quarter of 2014, due to the timing of receipt of orders and delays in awarding of contracts. |
|
o |
Revenues in the quarter were driven primarily by international orders from police, naval and coast guard forces, and an offshore oil application. Mass notification sales, which included an airport in Asia and a U.S. Army installation, accounted for 18% of revenues in the fiscal third quarter. |
|
● |
Net Income (Loss): The Company reported a net loss of $64,000, or $0.00 per share during the fiscal third quarter of 2015, compared with net income of $1.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, reported during the fiscal third quarter of 2014. |
|
o |
The net loss in the quarter was primarily due to the decrease in revenues, partially offset by reductions in operating expenses. |
|
● |
Balance Sheet: Cash and cash equivalents were $17.8 million at June 30, 2015, a decline from $23.9 million reported at September 30, 2014, primarily due to $4.7 million of investments in short and long-term marketable securities. Working capital totaled $25.6 million, compared to $27.7 million, at September 30, 2014, due to the purchase of $2.8 million of long-term marketable securities. |
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2015 Financial Summary
|
● |
Revenues: Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $12.4 million, a decline of $4.8 million from the $17.2 million reported during the same period in fiscal 2014, due to delays in contract awards. |
|
● |
Net Income: Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 declined by $1.9 million to $732,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, from $2.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, reported during the same period in fiscal 2014. |
“While the pipeline of opportunities we are actively pursuing continues to grow, order timing and contract award delays affected our fiscal third quarter results,” commented Tom Brown, President and CEO of LRAD Corporation. “During the quarter, we invested in new software products, increased our on-hand inventory, and added business development personnel to position us for an improved fiscal Q4 and accelerated growth in fiscal 2016.”
